The successful candidate will have strong mechanical and manufacturing design knowledge, the ability to proactively manage an end-to-end design process, and the confidence to take ownership of projects from initial enquiry through to production.

Key responsibilities include:

Proactively oversee development of bespoke product enquiries from initial customer information, providing quality design outputs in the form of:

o Simple product line drawings for customer review and approval.

o Overview renders to help sell the concept.

o A full suite of manufacturing information for designs, including component drawings, assembly drawings, BOMs, dxf file exports etc.

Manage and action design update requests from the production team.
Communicate with management when key tasks and design stages are complete to keep project momentum.
Maintain design file structure within the Vault, filing data neatly with correct part numbers and descriptions and managing revisions and lifecycle states. Additionally understanding the difference in systems for bespoke designs compared to long-term standard product offerings.
Gain on the job knowledge of relevant hardware industry standards to ensure designs are market compliant and to the best possible quality.
Ensure the technical administration team has all the information required to load BOM data from the design system into order processing and inventory systems.
When necessary, present progress on design projects, clearly communicating concept ideas and updates.
Highlight product cost inefficiencies and value analyse applicable designs.
Work closely with cross-functional teams, including production, quality, marketing, and sales, to ensure that the product design meets the business goals and customer needs.
Be present & professional during project reviews with customers where necessary.

Experience generating product renders with the knowledge to setup for fast indicative visuals or detailed, more photorealistic images.
Knowledge of metals and machining principles is key to design for typical products, supplementary knowledge of casting, moulding, sheet metal, pressing and extrusion is also beneficial.
Understanding of clearance, tolerancing and design for assembled products.
A high degree of technical knowledge balanced with creative ability and a hands-on approach.
General commercial awareness.
Ideally, industry knowledge of products, and standards – or the ability to pick these up quickly while on the job.
The ability to cope with the pressure of deadlines.
Determination to achieve project completion, showing optimism and enthusiasm when things don't go to plan.
